Eloise has really bad eczema, as well, we have tried lots of different things also. Â What has been working for us lately is we give her a short bath at night and then put Eucerine (sp?) baby lotion on her. Â As long as we are dillagent about doing it every single day it seems to be working as her skin looks a lot better. Â Also we use CA baby wash for sensitive skin. Â

I have been dealing with eczema with my daughter now since she turned a year old. It began with what looked to be scalding in the diaper area. The ped. treated her for yeast, then staff, then finally sent me to a dermatologist who told me it was eczema. He too prescriped the hydrocortisone ointment(ointment in the winters, and cremes in the summer). It helped some.. But the most effective was the Dove Sensitive Skin body wash. You buy it in the adults body wash section at walmart or other retail stores. It has cleared my little girls skin up tremendously. She still has outbreaks on her bottom some, but the dermatologist told me that until I got her potty trained we would battle the diaper area outbreaks. So try some of the Dove Sensitive SKin body wash, it is sooo thick and soft, you will be able to instantly tell a difference.

Hi there!Â My little guy had it really bad on his cheeks when he was around 1 and I finally got so fed up with it that I took him to the dermatologist.Â She prescribed 2 different creams, 1 with a steroid, that can't be used for longer thanÂ 2 weeks, and then another without.Â They worked wonderfully.Â Every time his cheeks would start to get red againÂ IÂ would apply the steroid and thenÂ once it cleared again switch back toÂ the non-steroid.Â Eventually I think heÂ outgrew it which she said could happen andÂ I haven't had to useÂ it in forever.Â Â Every time I see a little redness or rashiness any where on his body I apply that steroid and it clears it right up.Â Before I took him to the dermatologist, he pedi prescribed him some hydrocortisone, but it never worked.Â Â Since then IÂ only use California Baby sensitive shampoo and bodywash, and their Calendula cream on him and it has kept the eczema away.Â I hope this helps, I know how frustrating it can be.

Have you thought of a possible food allergy causing the eczema? Part of my daughters allergic reaction to milk/milk protein is eczema that won't go away regardless of what creams/lotions we use. The only thing that works is being very strict with her diet. It's not fun but it works for her! Good luck with your little one! I hope you find something that works!

Our regiment has been similar to those mentioned above, but we have had to take further steps to get LO's eczema to clear.Â We do showers, not baths.Â We use Dove soap, as mentioned above.Â We also use anything possible for sensitive skin, like suncreens, baby wipes, free and clear detergent, etc.Â We've been using Cetaphil lotion (really thick and very nice) applied twice a day, and the ped. prescribed triamcinolone acetonide ointment to put on any breakouts, and they usually clear up within a day or two.Â This plan has really helped us :)
